《After Divorcing, She Shocked The World (1)》Chapter 42: Complicated Feelings
Advertisement
On the other hand, Wu Mei returned to the Li Family's house. She took out the divorce agreement from the cabinet, picked up the pen, and signed it.
For some reason, she was unhappy. She packed her things that night and returned to the Wu Family's house in the dark.
Wu Pang and Yang Shan were stunned when they saw her.
When he snapped out of it, Wu Pang pointed at her face with an angry expression and bellowed, "Why did you come back?!"
"You're being ridiculous. This is my house."
Wu Mei swaggered over to the sofa and sat down. She looked at the people in front of her like she was the master of the house and said, "I remember telling you to move out as soon as possible!"
Wu Pang sneered and looked at her like she was a clown.
"Don't think I don't know that you and Li Nanchen are already divorced. You're all alone now. Do you think I'll be afraid of you?"
Yang Shan shrieked in agreement, "That's right, it was all over the news and we all know about it! We won't give up this house to you. Let's see what you can do about it!"
Won't give it up?
Wu Mei was already upset today, yet these people still wanted to trigger her?
Massaging her wrist, she said, "If you don't want to give it up, who wants to be the first to be bashed up when I start beating people in a while?"
Wu Pang felt like his dignity had been thoroughly challenged.
This wretched girl!
She's as disobedient as her mother!
Wu Pang was so angry that he gritted his teeth and cursed under his breath. Picking up the baseball bat, he rushed towards her and aimed to whack her on the back of the head!

"How dare you rebel! I'll beat you to death, you unfilial daughter!"
"Get lost!"
Wu Mei couldn't be bothered to waste time with them. She lifted her leg and kicked Wu Pang in the stomach, sending him flying!
"Ah! Wu Mei, you brute! You even hit your biological father!" Yang Shan screamed in fear, giving Wu Mei a headache.
Wu Mei covered her forehead and pursed her lips. Her tone was as cold as an Asura as she said, "Yeah, I even beat up my biological father. What's one more of you?"
With that, she shoved Yang Shan's shoulder and watched as Yang Shan flew out like a piece of paper...
Then, Wu Mei went straight upstairs, picked up Wu Yi, who was sleeping, and threw her out the door.
Bang!
Wu Mei closed the door. The world was quiet!
She then returned to the bedroom. Recalling Li Nanchen's cold gaze when he wanted to divorce her, she was so angry that she scolded him, "Idiot!"
"You don't know what's good for you and are so easily provoked..."
Wu Mei smashed the wall hard before restraining her emotions. "Forget it. What has it got to do with me?!"
The moment the divorce agreement was signed, the Li Family's matters had nothing to do with her anymore!
The next morning.
Wu Mei opened her eyes and subconsciously browsed through any news related to the Li Family. Almost instantly, she sobered up and sat up.
Frowning, she looked through the financial, social, and entertainment headlines. All of them were taken up by Li Nanchen!
"President Li Nanchen of the Li Corporation is suspected of causing intentional harm..."
"Li Nanchen has announced his divorce from his wife, Wu Mei. Their relationship has soured! Wu Mei moved out of their love nest overnight..."

"Something unexpected happened to Old Master Li in the hospital! It will probably affect the opening and closing of the stock market today! The financial industry is observing the situation..."
The seemingly messy and unrelated news articles were pieced together like puzzles.
What happened last night gradually became clearer and formed a complete picture.
Wu Mei clutched her phone tightly. At that moment, she suddenly realized that Li Nanchen had divorced her in the hospital and cut ties with her to clear her name!
Is he the one who helped her take the blame so that the Li Family's relatives and police will not be able to pursue the matter?
Wu Mei put down her phone and went into the kitchen to open the fridge. She drank two glasses of ice water. The biting chill cleared her mind, but her heart was in a dilemma.
Li Nanchen...
She stared at the ring on her ring finger with mixed feelings. In the end, she took it off and threw it into the glass.
The ring swirled around in circles before sinking to the bottom of the cup.
Taking a deep breath, she deleted the push notifications on her phone.
Since they were already divorced, they should maintain the status quo. Wu Mei did not intend to go back. It would be more convenient for her to use her identity as a free woman to enter the Special Agent organization.
Although Li Nanchen had been very nice to her during this period of time, this bit of emotion was not enough to make Wu Mei forget her mission—To investigate the cause of her death.
Wu Mei made up her mind, but she was still a little worried about Old Master Li's condition.
Using an anonymous phone number, she dialed the number for the nurses' station and deliberately changed her tone of voice as she asked, "Hello? I'm a secretary from the Li Corporation. May I know how the Old Chairman's condition is now? Can he be transferred to another hospital?"
The nurse was puzzled. She did not receive any notification that the VVIP patient was about to be transferred!
"Old Master Li has just gotten out of danger. May I ask if you want to get that done today..."

Against this backdrop upon the central island of Syroneika exists the Mercan League, an alliance of city states ruled by the Archon from his seat in the Capital, Merlabria.

Both princes vie for the Archonship, with the aristocracy close behind looking to settle old scores.
